Unlike tour companies, we don’t use a cookie-cutter itinerary for every trip. We provide our curated schedules to the group a week before the trip after incorporating any exciting local events (summer festivals, markets, etc) and weather changes. So no two OOO trips are the same. Here’s how we plan to explore Colombia this summer!
Bienvenido! Turn on that OOO notification at work and meet your crew at a rooftop bar in Medellin for a chill first night of getting to know each other. Drinks are in order.
Coffee is central to Colombian culture, which is why we’ll go deep into the hills to visit a family-owned coffee farm. Upon arriving at the farm, we’ll explore the coffee production process, learn all about the elements that go into aromatic Colombian coffee, and, of course, taste some of its deliciousness at the source! Even non-coffee lovers will enjoy their time on this scenic farm.
With its pristinely preserved architecture, colorful houses, and incredible view from Piedra del Peñol, Guatape is a day-long adventure away from the hustle and bustle. Those who’d like to can climb the 600+ steps to get to the top of the rock – it’s tough, but it’s worth it!
Medellín thrives with a lavish music and dance scene. We’ll learn how to dance the Colombian way and how to approach locals without feeling like a tourist. Who better to help us through it than our Local Lead, Cata. Salsa, merengue, reggaeton – she’s got us covered!
Tejo, a combination of beer and gunpowder, is Colombia’s national sport! Naturally, we got curious and plan to try our hands at this game by throwing tejos (metal discs) at a ring rigged with explosives. We’ll meet our local friends and grab a few beers!
Watch this neighborhood transform from one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the world to a gleaming and colorful commune through the power of art and music. We’ll walk through the commune with our local friends to understand the transformation through their eyes.
If you’re feeling adventurous, opt in for the Adventure add-on. We’ll drive two hours outside Medellín to go on a hike in the Andean mountain ranges, followed by rafting in the Samara river.
We’ll be staying in boutique apartments in the trendy neighborhood of El Poblado. Each apartment has private rooms and bathrooms for all our members. Our goal is to live, eat, and drink in the neighborhoods we travel to - so we don’t stay in shared hotels or hostels. Here’s the type of apartments we stay at in Medellin:
